When Zhang Xu, Harry, and Slughorn had collected all the materials marked on the map, they returned to Hogwarts from the Forbidden Forest just in time for dinner.

Ever since they were separated from Bell and his party, the atmosphere in the car had not been right, Slughorn had a gloomy face and said nothing, Zhang Xu had been thinking about what was going on, and Harry could only quietly hold the map and guide the way.

After returning to the castle, Slughorn went upstairs, Harry went to the cafeteria to find his friends, and Zhang Xu turned around and went to the cafeteria to deal with today's loot.

Slughorn only needed the "blood of the sheep" of the native sheep, and Zhang Xu took the rest of the whole sheep.

After eating two sandwiches from the house-elves to cushion his stomach, Zhang Xu began to study the four sheep on the ground.

Since it is a ripe fruit, it means that it can be planted, and then it will take root, thrive, blossom and bear fruit.

At the beginning, Zhang Xu didn't expect that the meat of the native sheep was so delicious.

Therefore, when he was in the forbidden forest, he was always thinking about whether he could expand and regularize the cultivation of native sheep.

Now the structure of the herbal medicine planting industry in my hometown has begun to age, in addition to some special medicinal materials, some common medicinal materials have not had much profit under the fierce competition in the market, and now the village is in urgent need of new varieties to adjust the industrial structure.

The basilisk breeding industry is Zhang Xu's own industry, and he has no intention of handing it over to the clan.

The resort in the village is now a poverty alleviation project that drives the development of the surrounding areas, and the resort has driven the construction of "one village, one boutique" of green food in the surrounding mountainous villages under the help and guidance of the government. This makes most of the profits of the entire resort flow to the surrounding villages, and the dividends in the village at the end of the year are also at a level that can make everyone happy.

In his last life, Zhang Xu heard a buddy from Shandong in the university dormitory mention that in the 80s, their family used 8 seeds to introduce American ginseng and became the first area in the country to successfully try to grow American ginseng. In the first two years of his crossing, the income of American ginseng there was 80,000 to 90,000 yuan per acre. The next month, in October, when the American ginseng was harvested every year, he could receive several catties of American ginseng from his buddy. Therefore, in the past two years, Zhang Xu began to look around Europe for herbs with economic value that could be grown in his hometown, and if there was a suitable one, he would introduce trial planting.

Although Professor Sprout, who was invited after dinner, did not quite understand Zhang Xu's practice of trying to take it back to plant whatever money he wanted, she still readily agreed to help Zhang Xu conduct research on large-scale planting of native sheep. Of course, all expenses are paid by Zhang Xu, and all the final scientific research results are also enjoyed by him.

After negotiating the cooperation and initialing the memorandum of cooperation, Professor Sprout began to study the fruits of the native sheep with Zhang Xu.

As a fruit that has the function of spreading seeds, it naturally has seeds inside, and the first step tonight is to dissect these sheep-like fruits and find the seeds inside.

When cotton matures, in addition to cellulose, there are also small amounts of fatty waxy substances, nitrogen substances and pectins, which can prevent cotton from absorbing rain and dew. The sheep-like fruit is similar, and the wool on the outside also contains a lot of water-repellent fat, which looks and feels greasy to the touch...... Narp's hair.

As a plant, the native sheep fruit has no internal organs except for bones, and when it is opened, it is full of soft flesh.

After some skinning and shaving, Zhang Xu and Professor Sprout discovered that the sheep's vertebrae were its seeds.

When the Harry trio arrived at ten o'clock in the evening, Professor Sprout had already left with the seeds of the four sheep-like fruits, while Zhang Xu was there to process the remaining mutton.

Ron and Hermione, who had seen this for the first time, unbelievably touched the greasy fur and poked the flesh of the lamb with their wands.

"I can't believe it's the fruit of a plant." Hermin sighed, "Although I have seen its introduction and pictures in the book, this is the first time I have seen it in real life. ”

"I thought Harry was joking." Ron looked at the sheep that had been split in half and had no guts in the middle and said, "How does it taste?" ”

As soon as Ron's words fell, Zhang Qiu took a steaming hot pot and put it on the table next to him, and Luna came over and took the sliced meat that Zhang Xu had just cut after putting the spice plate away.

"If you want to know the taste, prepare your own dishes and chopsticks." Zhang Xu said to Ron angrily. This product just saw Zhang Qiu after preparing the bottom of the pot and asked how it tasted.

Zhang Xu froze a sheep and put it away, and then said to the students who were already eyeing the kitchen and said, "Do it yourself if you want to eat." ”

A group of students who couldn't wait for a long time began to act as if they heard the starting gun.

Watching a group of people start to divide the mutton and make the stove, Zhang Xu said to Neville, who was preparing the barbecue stick: "Remember to give me two skewers when the barbecue is done, otherwise I will stew your Laifu." ”

When Zhang Xu returned to his position, the soup base in the copper pot was already boiling, and the green onions, ginger slices, sunshine mushroom slices, and walking mushroom slices were tumbling up and down with the boiling bubbles in the pot.

Just as Zhang Xu and the others were about to start eating, the kitchen suddenly became quiet, only to see the kitchen door opened, and Dumbledore took Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, Professor Sprout, Snape and the four heads of Slughorn, Sinista, Trelawney and other Hogwarts professors who were all alive in the house.

While the students were stunned, Dumbledore walked over to the table where the lamb was kept, picked up the last whole sheep in both hands, and then asked the students around him, "We take a sheep, don't you mind?"

The students around him didn't dare to say that they didn't mind, so Dumbledore acquiesced, and he smiled and said to the students around him, "Thank you, I wish you all a nice meal." Then he took the sheep and departed.

Dumbledore and the professors then made a long table away from the students and took matters into their own hands.

Zhang Xu looked at Hagrid, who was cutting mutton, it seems that if the professors want to eat more tonight, they will have to use real kung fu.

Because of the presence of the professors, the students couldn't get up, and everyone spoke a lot quieter. When it was time for everyone to eat, they finally knew why Professor Dumbledore had brought all the living professors to grab the sheep.

Because this lamb is so delicious.

Soon, there was no sound of speech in the whole kitchen, both the professors and the students were busy grabbing the meat, even Neville ignored Zhang Xu's threat to stew Leyford, and the grilled meat skewers were not even sent to Zhang Xu.

From the moment the first piece of meat jumped out of its plate and ran to Professor Flitwick's plate, the Professor's table became a performance arena for silent spells and wandless spells.

Suddenly two palm-tall figures in the usual armor in the Hogwarts corridors appeared on the table, walked to the saucer, forked a piece of meat with the sword in their hand, and then turned around and ran towards Dumbledore's plate.

Slughorn pulled out a crystal bottle, and after dropping a small drop of the elixir into his mouth, he always got the best part.

Snape quietly cast a confusion charm on the plate of meat in front of him, making it undetectable to the professors next to him.

At some point, Professor McGonagall was forking meat into the plate, when the fork in her hand suddenly became several times larger.

……

Just when the professors showed their talents, several professors expressed calmness.

Hagrid thought about running into the Forbidden Forest tomorrow.

Professor Sprout secretly made up her mind that when the native sheep were successfully planted, she would have to detain one of her own heads and eat enough for herself.

As for Scarlett, if Zhang Xu had less than half a sheep in his private possession, her name would be written upside down.
